You're in deep aren't you. That's akin to the FBI telling us to only look at their pictures.
It's a very interesting take due to the logic in it. Being that the conspiracy theorists have so much inside info and are such masterminds at getting at the truth, one would imagine that they wouild be a hindrance to the powers that be and an obvious target of covert operations. After all, these conspiracy theorists are in many ways revealing classified information. But somehow thay manged to go unscathed.

These conspiracy loons make a very big mistake when they assume that everyone, other than themsleves of course, totally trusts the government, but if they admit that their (the theorists) theories go so over the top, they would have to admit that their ultimate MO is to stroke their own egos as being so much more in tuned and intelligent than the average Joe.

Actually I read his posts. I've never been exposed to a nutter at his level. While I find the thinking quite unbelieveable, it's also quite intriguing to read the madness that he and his followers spew. If it were the 50s or 60s they would have been put away for their own safety while getting shock treatment or a lobotomy.

The next picture shows him hunched over some. The next picture shows an even more bent over posture. The next one is even more bent over and the last picture is a picture of a sheep.
Now there's evidence of a DNA shift if I ever saw one!

I agree.

"Madness" is a very appropriate word to use, too.

That poster, as far as I can tell, is on CD virtually 24/7 and has the time and energy to post very long and wordy posts and to dig up every whacky theory and picture and video imaginable.

No job?

In fact, I'm not sure how someone who thinks like that could hold down a job. Or even function in society as a whole.

Their parents are still denying that their sons did the bombings. Are you kidding me?

This is a very busy person. Highly doubt C-D is his only forum where he's trying to enlighten the ill-informed people who can't think for themselves. All that research to keep up with to spin his conspiracy theory requires a lot of time I would think.

Yep, caught her this morning in yet again another rage. She's acting like all those other mother's whose kids blow themselves up. I think she knew what they were doing.

You have to keep in mind that due to a very inter-connected world via social media and the internet, this mother is just parroting what conspiracy theorists are claiming. Haven't you been reading the things that they are saying right here on CD?

Now, one can mostly have compassion for a mother that has lost a son and has another thousands of miles away hospitalized with multiple injuries, but if what has been floating around is true, pertaining to her being instrumental in radiclalizing her son/sons, it is very difficult to have sympathy for her and not understand that she is reaping what she has sown.
